Wild things are back

Yes, "Wild things" is trying to make a come back. I am able to get more hours for the nurse to come and stay with Ada, so I can sit at my work table longer. There are a few changes even though I can sit and work as long as I can. My table is in front of Ada's room and I am still going in and out as she might needs me. First, I start making cane. Oh yes, if you know me, this is a big one. I am able to make a few flower canes to use in the pendants and beads. Love those skinner-blend and had to use the last piece of it, so I stacked them up. By using Mokume gane technique, I came up with another pendant. This is getting more fun.

Second, I am using the same design or similar one, this way I can make enough beads to finish a necklace or two using the same color palette.

Third, using the same clay so I can get the same color or same hues every time. I started using different clays and had to go back to Fimo because the colors does not blend in together easily. For example. if I run red and yellow through the pasta machine, I do not want orange line between them. Is that make any sense? Fimo is more firm and good for caning.

They are really really beautiful!I love them!All your work is exquisite, you are one of my favorite PC artists. I am so glad that you have now a bit of time to clay. Your work is a real inspiration to me which i am a newbie with PC. I am looking forward to see your next creations!

P.S. These days, I spend most of my time taking care of my daughter, Ada who was in a car accident on March, 2008. I haven't posted here for a while but will try to share my work here again, as much as I can.

My other blogs

Me, myself and I

I started making Polymer clay beads in 2005. I sold my first batch and started sending them out to the bead stores and bead shows. I started a blog to share my experieces with polymer clay and started a tutorial blog to show how I make some of my beads.
